henry waxman wrote to the fcc asking it to be reclassified as title ii. what is your reaction to that? >> i respect henry a lot, obviously. but he is wrong. they are trying to use an old for ansed in the 1930's industry in the 21st century. it has been proven over and over again that the best solution to allocation issues and usage issues is an open, transparent market with appropriate oversight by federal, and in some cases, state and local government. we have a booming internet. we have a booming telik and indications system -- telecommunications system, and by and large it is because congress and various presidents have adopted more open market-based policies. for henry or the fcc to try to use an almost 100-year-old law to regulate the internet, in my opinion, is frankly flat wrong. reclassifycc does broadband as a title ii entity, would congress have a voice? the congress override that? >> we certainly have the right to override that. bill to have to pass a go to the house, the senate, and the president. with president obama as president and a democra
